much agreed... i always admit to speeding when doing so. and apologize to them for not paying closer attention. don't challenge an officer for doing his job. no one reacts well... if you tell them they are wrong... especially the law. admitting fault without confrontation goes a long way. your chances of a warning will increase. i get pulled over about once a year for speeding... i haven't had a ticket in over 8 years. knock on wood.
